Re: [Avid-L2] can't find master clips using matchback

 

The reason I asked about the Unity folders is that there should be a
separate copy of the avp file in each system's Unity folder. I was just
wondering it the folders are getting confused. I work in an interplay
environment, which makes for slightly different rules but AFAIK the
Unity folder structure is the same. --J.B.

The obvious quick work around is to "show referenced clips" in the bin with the sequence but I'm curious, are you opening the project from the main project folder or one of the unity folders? Does this happen when you are working on the same workstation that created the original clips and bins?
